Re: Question: What was the first FIRST competition you attended?
My first FIRST competition was in eighth grade (winter 2008) and it was an FLL district event in Lafayette, IN. We ended up winning the research award and was the last team to qualify for state competition. It was our teams first year and we were ecstatic.
My first FRC event was DC in 2010 and we came in as the undefeated champions of the regional the year before so there was a lot of pressure from some of the older members. We missed all the practice matches so we could put in our new kicker and ended up getting eliminated in the quarter finals. I had so much fun playing ninja on the metro in DC as well as being Andy Baker's assistant for the drive team which prepped me to be on the drive team at our next event.
